Well, I hope you like sports. This month's Xbox Game Pass additions are headlined by Football Manager 2021 on PC and console, which will join Microsoft's subscription library tomorrow, on 4th March. NBA 2K21 for console and on Android via xCloud also becomes available tomorrow, while Madden NFL 21 is available now via EA Play (which is included on console if you are an Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscriber). EA Play also gets Star Wars Squadrons at some point this month - that's Motive Studios' spaceship dogfighting game which launched in October last year. Emma wrote that it was a "scrappy, compelling starfighter that excels in VR" in Eurogamer's Star Wars Squadrons review . Looking to April, there's one final dollop of sports on the horizon - the addition of NHL 21 on console for EA Play at some point next month. As some games arrive on Xbox Game Pass, other titles shuffle off. On 15th March the catalogue loses Alvastia Chronicles, Astrologaster, Bloodstained: Ritual of the … [Read more...] about Football Manager headlines Xbox Game Pass March line-up

2064: Read Only Memories might have my favourite opening of any game ever. I'm thinking specifically about the bit you can play in a demo on Steam. You're a writer, sat in your tiny apartment, procrastinating about writing a review of some fancy new headphones.

The game is an adventure affair set in a future poised on the brink of three singularities, and in the opening ten minutes there's a brilliant joke about being a writer and an excellent discussion of Asimov's laws of robotics. I've spent the morning playing the demo for Read Only Memories: Neurodiver , the studio's follow-up. It's every bit as good as 2064. It might … [Read more...] about Read Only Memories: Neurodivers revels in the corrupted past

A The Last of Us 2 player making it through the game's Grounded Permadeath difficulty mode died in the worst way imaginable. Just below, you can see a clip that emerged on The Last of Us subreddit. In the clip, you can see the player making it through an encounter in the Seattle area as Ellie on day two. They successfully manage to make it past a Seraphite ambush, only to drop through the world when going through a door and die immediately, rendering all their progress useless. Died In my Grounded PermaDeath Run in a weird way from r/thelastofus That sure would be a tough pill to swallow, were we in their situation. If you're unfamiliar with the mode, Grounded Permadeath mode in The Last of Us 2 is the game at its toughest, forcing you to survive insurmountable odds where a single bullet can kill you. If you're killed, you forfeit all progress made, and are forced to start at the very beginning of the entire game. It makes the accidental death due to a glitch all the … [Read more...] about The Last of Us 2 Grounded Permadeath glitch abruptly ends a playthrough
